who you are helping

Donations will be given to Austin restaurant employees.

There are 1.3 million restaurant jobs in Texas.  That is 10% of the total jobs.

These are hard working folks.  In Austin we have quite a treat with the great food.  Restaurant employees cook your food, they take care in your order, they wash your dishes.  While you enjoy the relaxation of a cooked meal.

Food is a part of the cultural experience.  So you are also helping yourself by learning how to be a better cook!
